Ladyboy, 1553 Echo Park Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90026, US

The Echo Park Independent Co-Op (abbreviated as E.P.I.C.) is a local fashion boutique located on Sunset Boulevard, in the heart of Echo Park. This shop specializes in locally made/designed clothing and gifts for men and women. Names like Natalia Romano, Laura Kranitz and Brian Lichtenberg might not be household brands, but they've slowly built a cult following in the L.A. fashion world and beyond, refusing to bend to seasonal trends with their work. You'll find clothes here that range from tasteful to gaudy, sexy to comical, but that's part of the fun. The Co-Op also carries a range of shoes and heels for women, and like the clothing, they're all L.A. creations.
